There will be more Sitalkuchi-like incidents if anyone tries to break law: Dilip Ghosh

Four people were killed during phase 4 of the West Bengal election as CISF personnel allegedly opened fire after coming under attack from locals who "attempted to snatch their rifles" outside a polling booth at Sitalkuchi in Cooch Behar district.

Addressing a gathering at Baranagar in North 24 Parganas district on Sunday, Dilip Ghosh said, "The naughty boys, who had presumed that the rifles of the central forces were just for a show during election duty, will not dare repeat the same mistake after seeing what happened in Sitalkuchi. This will happen in the whole of Bengal. If anyone dares to take the law into his hands, this will happen to him also."

In another programme, Dilip Ghosh blamed West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee for the Cooch Behar incident. He said "Didi is scared of people's mandate" and that is why "she is trying to break the law".
